Jessica W.

Nice little family-owned spot! Service was quick and friendly. We got the Chinese BBQ and the seafood pan-fried noodles. The noodle was crispy on top with a somewhat thicker texture sauce underneath. The BBQ meats had good flavor, but the pork was a bit dry and the roast duck didn't have much meat on it, mostly skin and bone. Good portions for the price, even had leftovers to take home. The place is casual for a laid-back meal

It's a very busy spot on the weekends. The lady owner is so busy multitasking so well. Taking phone calls, in person orders, running the cash register and chopping meat nonstop for the hour and a half we were dining in. Grandma is doing the serving while semi watching the grandkid. We enjoyed their 3 neat platter with bbq pork and crispy pork belly over rice. Their bbq ribs were a bit dry. We demolished the beef chow fun in about five minutes as it was so good. The beef stew could have been more tender and served hotter - I took this home and cooked it some more and it was delish. We took a whole duck to - go and it was one of the juiciest duck we had. It's casual family dining.

Pork fried rice

Everything was delicious! Some of the best BBQ pork I've ever had. Pork fried rice was perfectly seasoned and a generous portion of. Highly recommend.

F3. Fry BBQ Pork Rice Noodle (Chow Fun)
Nancy T.

My go-to restaurant in Colorado. Please experience this place if you're too tied to trendy restaurants. This hole in the wall deserves every recognition for not only their food, but the amazing service that these kind folks always delivers. The Fry BBQ Pork Rice Noodle (chow fun) is dangerously good! They not only have the perfect balance of umami flavors from the sauce, but mixed with the bbq flavor is incredible. Most places in Denver, the chow fun is either bland or tastes like soy sauce... Here, the sauce is paired well with the crunch from the bean sprouts, onions, and green onions. And lastly, but most importantly, THE FRESH NOODLES are addicting. Such an amazing texture you don't get at most places. I can't recommend this dish enough. Honey mayo shrimp is not too sweet and coated nicely... somehow they manage to keep the crunchiness even as leftovers. Shrimp and pork wontons: I personally prefer just the shrimp wontons here as I didn't taste much shrimp, but can't be mad with that delicate wrapper they use and the amazing light broth that packs so much flavor.

A bustling fast casual family owned Cantonese BBQ joint. The food came out in about 5 minutes. It's one of the best BBQ places we've been to in Denver. Noodles had a great texture. Soup was hot and had depth. Would love it it they'd open a south location. Highly recommend!

2 item combination special with white rice, BBQ pork, and curry chicken
Lena N.

Got takeout here. Very friendly and prompt service. They give you a lot of food for a low price, enough for 2-3 meals, what a great value! And much better quality food than other similar places I've tried. I especially recommend the BBQ pork. Such a great deal!

Salt & pepper capelin (fried fish). Twelve small fried fish per serving.
Kimberly N.

How hungry were we for the food served here? Within 30, we finished 95% of the following food items we ordered including salt & pepper capelin (fried fish), salt & pepper shrimp, 2 servings of beef chow fun, 1/2 lb each of roasted bbq pork and roasted pork belly, saliva chicken, water spinach with garlic, seafood pan noodles, and 1 whole roasted duck! Some of the photos presented here don't do justice, because as soon as the food came, we all just inhaled it! Highly recommend you stop by this place for authentic Chinese food that will explore your taste buds, and will leave your stomach full. A friend wrote the following about her frequent stops at Uncle Henry's for takeout, and I think it's appropriate to include here with this review. "Uncle Henry's is my go to Cantonese food closest to me. The quality of their seafood is chef's kiss... it's never fishy/muddy/sketchy tasting and supposedly they get it direct from a California supplier. Their salt and pepper shrimp or capelin small fish is that fresh, which is very difficult in Colorado. The bbq roast meat has exceptional quality and consistency. Despite having a smallish menu, their attention to detail and execution is excellent. It's hard to get such an amazing Asian restaurant (especially in NW Denver)... I'm talking about California/East coast level of Cantonese food. That's why all the Asians who live in the area come here. Another Canto person who lives in the Denver Metro area (and whose parents ran restaurants) regularly drives up her for their food. (Pro tip: they can get pretty busy on the weekend from 5-7pm so be prepared to wait 20-30 minutes for your food. They are just a small family business so don't have the band width. They also try their very best not the compromise the quality of their food when it gets busy.)"

Roast duck and roast pork
Shawn B.

We usually grab a whole roast duck on our way back from Denver. Today we had time for a lunch plate. I split a 3 meat lunch plate w my partner and it was the perfect amount of food. We got the roast pork, bbq pork, and of course the roast duck. The roast pork and bbq pork were fire! So delicious! The staff are super friendly and happy to answer your questions. Their roast duck is the best priced in the area as well as being super tasty.

Egg rolls
Josette C.

Service and staff are great very welcoming they make sure you have what you need if you stay and eat check out after you eat if you eat in. Ambiance welcoming and clean you can choose to sit at tables or the bar stools in front of window on hot days I would choose table, they do also have outdoor seating with umbrellas. The food the first time around was great I got some low main, the second time I don't know what happened I didn't care for it as much. I did like that it was big portions the first time around it feed 2 people for the to go box. But the second time I didn't even want to finish my food. We will try again maybe I just caught the cook on an off day. Redemption soon.

Vegan sesame "chicken"
Caroline Y.

Tried Uncle Henry with some friends for lunch and we split a couple dishes. Everything was super tasty! We ordered crispy salt and pepper tofu, vegan, sesame chicken with broccoli, and shrimp dumpling soup. This place is homestyle Cantonese food. The interior is small and there's only a couple tables. This is a good place for a casual meal or to grab some takeout. They specialize in Chinese bbq. We didn't try any this time, but it looked delicious. They roast duck and pork in house. 10/10, I will definitely be back to try other things on the menu. They have a large selection of vegetarian and vegan dishes.

Gem in Westminster - thankful for they are open for both lunch and dinner. Excited and interested to have a Hong Kong style restaurant in this pocket of town. I ordered the three meat combo with rice and greens. This family style cafe serves up a mean cha su as well as their roast duck. I'm excited to try other things on their menu. The offerings are fresh and flavorful and reminiscent of what you can enjoy in Asia. But their menu doesn't just stop at bbq, they have extensive offerings. Service is friendly and the space is clean.

Chicken Wings
Melanie T.

I finally got the try Uncle Henry and it was delicious and this is worth the drive. It feels like a real Cantonese Hong Kong bbq restaurant with the duck displayed. Next time, I'll need to try the 3 meat combo plate. It looks so good. But we ordered the sesame chicken, chowfun, and the salt and pepper chicken wings. The wings were super flavorful. There's enough seasoning to it and you can taste it with each bite. The crunch is so satisfying. If you want a drink, I highly recommend the honey jasmine tea. That was our favorite. Staff is super friendly. There's lot of seating options available. Food comes out relatively quick. Overall, fantastic meal especially if you're craving Cantonese cuisine and you live up north.

You walk in to pick up your order and they have tables blocking the entry, that's where you pay for your food. The portions are still as giant as ever, and the prices are still affordable. My wife and I had a hankering the other day for our old stomping grounds, so we jetted over there to pickup an order. It was ready in 10 minutes and two meals ran us $32. I think I pay $32 for a good cup of coffee these days!!!!!! I kid, I kid. The meal lasts you for days, you really get two giant sized portions out of it. It will probably last some of you three days. They don't skimp out here and it's incredible. They serve Asian fusion, Chinese American meals that are addictive. Or is that the MSG??? Probably so, and that's why it's delicious.

(Note, they are closed on Tuesdays.) I placed our pickup order on a Saturday night & it was ready in 15 minutes. The restaurant is for take-out only. Our food was in containers & placed in a box. I appreciated this since there was no way anything was going to tip over & spill. Very friendly phone & counter service as well. Note, you get six free Cheese Wontons when your order is more than $40. We ordered three different entrees with three different sides - Steamed White Rice, Fried Rice & Lo Mein Noodles. The sides were good, however the fried rice didn't seem fried, it was white rice with soy sauce. The Sweet & Sour Shrimp Entree was tasty - the shrimp were medium sized, cooked perfectly with a delicious sauce. The Sesame Chicken Entree was even better, the chicken was moist & tender. The beef in the Mongolian Beef Entree was great however there were way too many onions in the dish. Overall, a very satisfying meal.

Having lived in Hong Kong and Seattle we have always made dim sum brunches an important part of our…read moreweekend routine. We were told that Star Kitchen has a good dim sum service and our experience bore out that recommendation. Star Kitchen has 40 tables which is not enough for the demand so reservations are an absolute necessity. One cannot do this over the phone or on the web. Rather, they have a check-in system in the lobby which is only available about 15 minutes before the 10:00 store opening. Odd but effective since it likely eliminates problems with no-shows. Be advised there is a line before the lobby opens! Star Kitchen seats about 120 diners. They only had 5 carts which is far too few for the demand. Two carts are devoted to steamed, two for fried, and one for tofu and congee. The selection of fare was superb and featured the classics. I will say that the kitchen ensured the carts were always stocked. The lack of carts makes the wait between helpings longer than we would have preferred but the quality and taste more than made up for the delay. We started with chrysanthemum tea, ordered a mix of both steamed and fried classics then finished with honey tofu (which we highly recommend!) Six dishes plus dessert is more than enough for two adults. The food is excellent though the ambiance is classic Chinese eatery - functionality punctuated by bizarre objets d'art and random piles of boxes and linens. Go early and sit tight as your patience will be richly rewarded.

Delicious and authentic. What more can you want from dim sum?…read more Be sure to get here early as the wait can get lengthy. So plan ahead, though the food is well worth the wait! Carts rotate and display their options to you frequently as you enjoy your meal. So tou can order plates as quickly as you finish them. I recommend the pork buns and pork ribs. My favorite this time around were the leek dumplings with a side of noodles. We finished off with a coconut bun that wasn't too sweet. It was the perfect finish to the meal with ample amounts of tea. Use the kiosk up front to reserve your spot!

My group of 7 shared the roasted pork, pork and duck barbecue. I'm not a fan of duck so it would not be fair for me to write anything about it, but those who loved duck meat said that this place serve wonderful barbecue duck. As for the pork, both roasted and barbecue, they were so good. We had a little bit of white rice to eat with the meat, but really, you don't need the extra rice in order to eat these two types of pork meats. Since both styles of the pork were prepared differently, I cannot say one is better than the other: they were both delicious. The crunchiness and the flavorful from the roasted pork, as well as the aroma and the soft chewy from the barbecue pork, brings this dining experience to the next level. We also ordered the yu stir fry choy sum in garlic, the combination fried rice, and salt and pepper shrimp. I highly recommend the yu choy and shrimp dishes. I would skip the fried rice and get their beef chow fun, which is exactly what my other group of 6 did. In addition to what were mentioned above, they ordered Chinese broccoli, daikon and beef in clay pot, Taishan five spice duck, salted fish & chicken fried rice. Everyone enjoyed their food and dining experience here. Conversations were easily understood and heard. When asked what their favorite dish was, all of us said we liked everything, but when pressed to give one special dish, several folks mentioned the roasted pork, the clay pot, and the salt and pepper shrimp. Service here was excellent. The manager was very accommodating to our large group of diners, coming back and making sure we are doing fine as he refilled our water glasses. If you are looking for legit Chinese barbecue pork and duck, you don't need to look further: it's here at Happy Cafe BBQ. Enjoy!
